The Reception curriculum at Gill International Pre-School (GIPS) is designed to support the development and learning of children in the 4-5 year age range. This phase of early childhood is a time of continued growth and development, and the reception curriculum at GIPS is designed to support and encourage this process.
At GIPS, the reception curriculum includes a wide range of activities and learning experiences that are designed to help children develop important skills and knowledge. These activities may include playing with toys and games, engaging in imaginative play, participating in sensory activities, and learning through play and exploration. Through these activities, children are able to explore their interests, develop their creativity, and practice important skills such as problem-solving, communication, and coordination.
In addition to these activities, the reception curriculum at GIPS also includes elements of the Ugandan learning framework for early childhood development and the British Early Year's Foundation Stage (EYFS). This helps to ensure that children are exposed to a well-rounded and internationally recognized educational experience. The curriculum is also focused on preparing children for primary school education, whether that be through the international or national curriculum.
Overall, the reception curriculum at GIPS is designed to support the development and learning of young children in a safe and supportive environment. The school's small class sizes and low teacher-to-student ratio (1:5) allow for personalized attention and support for each child, helping them to thrive and reach their full potential.
